Ingredients

Scale

Truffle Center

2 cups salty and buttery crackers (~60 Ritz crackers)
2/3 cup La Lechera Dulce de Leche
1/4 cup Fireball whiskey

Chocolate Coating

8 ounces dark chocolate
2 teaspoons coconut oil

Instructions

Prepare the truffle center: Crush the buttery crackers finely. Using a food processor helps achieve even crumbs, preventing large chunks from remaining.
Combine ingredients: Add the Dulce de Leche to the crushed crackers and pulse in the food processor until well combined.
Add Fireball whiskey: Pour in the Fireball whiskey and pulse again until a thick, cohesive batter forms.
Form truffles: Scoop the mixture into individual truffle-sized portions and place them onto a baking sheet or platter lined with parchment paper.
Freeze: Place the tray in the freezer and let the truffles harden for about 20 minutes.
Melt chocolate coating: Set up a double boiler by simmering water in a pot and melting the dark chocolate with coconut oil in a heatproof bowl over the simmering water, stirring until smooth.
Dip truffles: Remove the hardened truffles from the freezer one at a time and dip into the melted chocolate, coating evenly.
Set chocolate: Return the dipped truffles to the parchment-lined baking sheet and place them in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to allow the chocolate coating to set firmly.
Serve and store: Enjoy your truffles immediately or keep them refrigerated until ready to serve to maintain their texture and freshness.

Notes

Use a food processor for best results to avoid large cracker pieces.
Freezing before dipping helps the truffles hold their shape when coated in chocolate.
Coconut oil in the chocolate coating adds shine and smoothness.
Store truffles in the fridge to prevent melting and maintain texture.
These truffles contain alcohol, so they are not suitable for children or those avoiding alcohol.
